eler who recently %Journeyed through the
country says that every village shows the

three to four inches in diameter ut the

him, of course.

he opens, and if he finds they are
Endorsed or signed by well-known men,
they are added to the Presidents per-
sonal pile. About a dozen or so out
of the hundreds are thus selected and
carried into the Presidents private Ii
brary, and are awaiting him when he
comes up from his breakfast. The others
are handed over to Mr.. Charles NJ. Hend-
ley, the executive clerk, whose business
it is to go over and read and assert them.
This is most carefully done. No letter
that comes to the White House is de-
stroyed, except it be some utterly ridicu-
lous epistle from crank or lunatic.
Every letter received at the White
House is answered either by one of the
White House clerks land generally two
clerks are kept busy week in and week out
writing letters) or by the clerks of the
department where they are referred. Day
in and day out Mr.. Hendley reads letters
and makes notes of them. He is obliged
to read the letters to find out what is to
be done with them. Often Colonel Lamont
acts as referee for certain letters, but the
executive clerk. There is always a
big pile of letters before him,
and the pile seems never to grow
less. Each new mail arrival takes the
place of those disposed of, and thus it
seems as if he had found perpetual mo-
ton. Mr.. Hendley is a most discreet
young man, and never talks about the
contents of the letters he reads, though
many have tried to find out.
The President often likes to look over
the illusions of the people, and some of
the strange letters are put aside for him
to read. Colonel Lamont first looks over
all these personal letters, and if he sees
any fun in them he puts them away for
the President to enjoy when he has time.
